PANTOKRATOR DAY IS UPON US

This has come to pass:

2007-2009 after the release we tried to start writing the new album, a lot was done but nothing really happened,
we started with a lot of songs but finished with none.
some time in 2008 or 2009 Rickard wrote 2 songs with a beginning a middle and an end.
then everything collapsed in to this inferno or writing rehearsing and refusing songs again. in the spring or early summer of 2009
we decided we had to isolate ourselves from family and everything
in order to get anything done, we borrowed a house from a couple within the Ordo Aurum near to an assumed hell gate and spent a weekend in summer there.
we wrote 95% of two new songs and talked a lot.
This was when we found the hole in the pocket of our writing.
we had started to grow up, for some people that is a good thing, when it comes top metal that is a disaster. when metalmusicians talk about a mature album it means that it
is far gone down of the road to complete ass-sucking, after ripe comes rotten.
everyone of us had developed a sense that nothing we did was good enough for the others. we had lost the faith in eachothers faith in eachother so to say.
This was when we started to turn the the bad sh#t around.

we formulated some fundamental Pantokrator doctrines:

.It (the song) shall feel good.

.The songs are good enough until the opposite is proven.

.The songs we write will be good, we must let the grow up
and give them a chance to stand on their own legs before we judge them

.Dubblekick will make any song or riff even better.
the only reason to stop the low rumbling from time to time is
to get the chance to make the "come" again.


we were supposed to play at Greenbelt festival later that summer but we never got there.
we were kidnapped by
two men and locked into a tower hidden in the mists of Avalon.
in order to protect us from "the others" during the sensitive work with a dangerous theme.
we were released just before Christmas after reaching an understanding with
their kidnappers.
we have been under constant surveillance, and can be called back at any time.

On some level, in some way this has really happened...
after the release from the tower the DM ( i think ) found some kind of recording program that gave us the possibility to work with the songs in a new way,
after this it really started to happen, the wheels are really turning now.

On the weekend of or Lords ascension we will return to the secret tower
make some sense of all the new material for the new album that we now have by the bucket load.

This time we will not go as prisoners since we have reached a level of understanding with
our selfappionted watcher, still we have no way to contact him, that would be to dangerous for his taste.
We received words from him by a carrier raven some weeks ago.
We have negotiated the right to bring a real computer this time so that we can update you on the progress,
he gave his permission provided that we use our dimensionals to create a safe connection,
they have now constructed a mulitileveldimentionalcryptodevice than can be conjured into the software
and thus create an untraceable pathway to the "real world".
